Oppo is launching the F19 smartphone in India on April 6. This is going to be the third smartphone in the F19 series, of which we have already seen two phones, the F19 Pro and the F19 Pro+. While the Oppo F19 Pro+ is a 5G phone, the F19 Pro is a 4G phone. So will be the upcoming Oppo F19. While we are yet to see the official launch happen in a few days in India, the Sri Lanka website of the Chinese company has spilled the beans. Nearly all the specifications of the Oppo F19 are out, so let us talk about them.
Before that, a little something about the two F19 Pro phones. The Oppo F19 Pro+ arrived in India last month as the first 5G phone in the F-series. Not only it brings upgraded specifications over last year’s F17 Pro, but it also goes big on the design, which looks more like what we have seen in the Reno series. The phone has a beautiful matte finish on the back, much like that on the Reno 5 series, but its camera design looks unique. In my quick review, I mentioned the Oppo F19 Pro+ can become your daily driver with a good mix of specifications. The Oppo F19 will, obviously, be a bit trimmed down in terms of specifications and whether it will also be a good phone is something only the price reveal will tell.
Now, the specifications. The Oppo F19 will be a big phone with a large 6.43-inch AMOLED display with Full-HD+ resolution. It will have a punch-hole system on the top, much like what the rest of the F19 series phones have. But while that is all good, the Oppo F19 lacks a high refresh rate. The display is stuck at 60Hz, which means you will not be able to enjoy smooth scrolling among other benefits of having a 90Hz or a 120Hz screen. Inside the cutout on the display, you have a 16-megapixel front-facing snapper. This one looks exactly the same as the one that last year’s Oppo F17 has.
